I thought the dancing and music was great. Its was a very long production, too long. I thought the Tevye was not as charsmatic as the actor in the movie. I was disappointed really. I could have fallen asleep though most of it.
Theo Bikel is extraordinary in his role and he alone was worth the price of admission
The music drowned out the actors a number of times. The dancing was memorable. The preformance could have been more technically sound.
Fiddler on the Roof was definitely worth seeing. The first Act was so well done. The music, the timing, etc. It was spectacular however, I was a little disappointed with the second Act. It seemed rushed to me and the ending did not leave me with a sense of 'it's over'. It left me feeling and saying: "That's all????" WOW!!!! Overall, it is definitely a show I would recommend to my family & friends.
The entire production was very well done. Humor woven throughout the story was excellent and enjoyed by the entire audience. A memorable afternoon!
I have seen 9 Broadway shows/plays in New York City. This was the same...... FANTASTIC! Great cast, wonderful singing, amazing sound. It also had very good stage stuff. I hope they bring in alot more.
Amazing! The cast was spectacular! The music was phenomenol - all in all - an awesome performance and well worth every penny!
This show was entertaining from start to finish. The musical numbers were great and the story was very engaging. I loved it!
I attended the opening night performance of Fiddler on the Roof, and was thoroughly impressed! The sets and staging were beautiful, and performances were flawless. I expected as much, considering it is part of the Broadway Across Canada tour, but was impressed nonetheless. Theo Bikkel was superb! He did such an amazing job and was completely believable in his role of Tevye. All other actors were also completely believable, and had me sitting spellbound for the whole two hour and fifty minute running time.
The singing and dancing were just breathtaking, it has been a long time since I have seen dancing like that, i would recommend this to all who appreciate fine arts, dancing and singing
If you like classic musicals you can't miss this show. The acting, scenery, lighting and of course the story is incredible. A timeless message about tradition and change. INCREDIBLE!!!
FIddler on the Roof was amazing! Excellent music, excellent sets and excellent actors!
TOPOL WAS FANTASTIC WHAT A GREAT VOICE, THE PLAY WAS AMAZING IT WAS TRULY ENTERTAINING . I FOUNG IT TO BE JUST AS FUNNY TOO. IT IS JUST AS RELEVANT TODAY AS IT WAS THEN . TEVYE COULD HAVE BEEN A FATHER OF TODAY STRUGGLING WITH CHANGES TO ONES LIFES AND TRADITIONS.GREAT PERFORMANCE.
This was an amazing production. It was great to see History and Culture dramatized on stage. The music was upbeat and the story line was enticing. Would see it again!
Singing and acting was decent, but set was too big for Jubilee stage and production felt cramped.
Many cannot live up to expectations, but Theodore Bikel did not disappoint the patrons at the Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium on Sunday afternoon. His singing was lovely, his timing was superb, and his gestures were a delight. Bikel's portrayal was truly a masterpiece.
We attended the 2 o'clock matinee performance of Fiddler on The Roof and found it to be the best musical we have ever enjoyed watching at the Jubilee Auditorium thus far. We bought the tickets as a Christmas gift for our 16 year old daughter and all of us couldn't stop talking about the wonderful vocals, dance and engaging acting that took part throughout the play as we enjoyed a dinner out on the town afterwards! The performers moved about the stage with ease and excellent timing as well an aura of unity one only sees occasionally eminating from the stage on to the audience, which was engaging. Thanks for the opportunity to enjoy such a great performance and once again "Bravo!" to all the actors.
T. Bikel was full voiced and full of confidence on stage on Sunday. He 'was' Tevye in every sense of the role. His full, distinctive voice filled out the character through timing, expression and humour. This so familiar role felt fresh and alive as he sang, grumped and shouted across the stage. His exquisite timing is crucial to the other characters and he is able to visibly relish the funny lines and physical comedy. Family strife caused by the changing of traditions by his three daughters, although seemingly out dated in 2010, felt powerful and raw on stage. The scenery was in some ways sparse and yet appropriate for the small village in Russia. The pre-show forest scrim set an entrancing mood. Fiddler is a stage experience worth re-living.
The musical was one of a kind, with excellent performances by all artists. Music and lighting were also superb making this Calgary performance absolutely breathtaking.
